Are you the parent of a picky eater? If this is you and dinnertime is a struggle, Amy Thompson can help. Amy is a pediatric occupational therapist and feeding specialist with over 20 years of experience helping children (and their families) navigate the challenges at mealtime. She is the founder of Little Table of Grace. In our lively interview, we cover:
- Why picky eating isn't just behavior. We talk about the root cause(s) and how Amy works with children to change their aversion and sensitivities to food.
- What to expect when working with Amy.
- Why "a child will grow out of it" is partially a myth. There is more going on than just a phase of life with some children.
- Why bribing a child with dessert or strongarming them at dinner is a recipe for disaster.
- How Amy works with children on the autism spectrum.
- Why screentime may become a crutch that is difficult to reverse.
- And more!
Families are busier today than ever before. Having dinner together should be pleasant, not a war zone or a battle of wills. If this sounds like your family, you can flip the script with Amy's guidance and help. And Amy shares a beautiful story of one little girl's victory over her aversion to pasta!
